Not the busiest or most popular trail head but just a heads up. You may want to avoid it for the next couple weeks because the parking could be swamped. Aug 5-18, the “Rainbow Family” is holding a gathering near the end of Bog Road. Backstory - Five or so years ago while on vacation at Kezar...

Looks like the first and last bridges are being re-done. Detours around via the Sherburne Ski trail. http://www.friendsoftuckermanravine.org/tuckerman_ravine_trail

For those interested, I crossed today at the closed bridge and was able to rock hop across 20 yards upstream with dry feet at 48 cubic feet per second, 2.55 feet on the Wild River stream gauge. It wouldn't take much more water to make it a very tricky and/or wet crossing. Cold temps would add a...

Sub 12 hrs up and back. Guy must be in some shape! Anyone heard of him? http://www.alpinist.com/doc/web14s/newsflash-jornet-denali-speed-record Edit: Read up and found he has records on Mt. Blanc and Matterhorn.

Anyone with experience paddling and camping on these lakes have recommendations on site selection? Looking to book with the Steven Phillips Preserve and South Arm Campground. Any other info/advice is welcomed. Thanks.

Prolouge: Finally decided to "get to it" and do the traverse, I'd had it on my mind for months since the spring time. It was an itch I needed to scratch. But first, a couple training hikes to gauge speed and proper nutrition over long days. I was already hiking a couple/few times a week so I had...

Hi all, Looking to upgrade my map of BSP. I have the paper AMC version but am looking for a waterproof map. A quick google search yields: 1) The Nat Geo map, looks nice and I like my Allagash maps from Nat Geo, this one is a little more expensive. 2) Map Adventures, also looks pretty good...

Had a great hike up Mt. Isolation and Boott Spur on the 30th. Up Rocky Branch, Iso East, and Davis Path, then north from Isolation on to Boott Spur and down Glen Boulder to a stashed bike. This hike completes my second round of 48 and it so happens that I also finished my first round on Iso. I...

So what do you think of this? I think it's a shame the animal has been put down, but understand it may have learned a pretty scary behavior. Pretty much was killed for being opportunistic, AKA just being a bear.

Both located in Sandwich, NH. Anyone know of public access points to put a kayak in? Am willing to carry relatively short distances.

Just came across this today and thought it was a cool tool to use to find a desired put-in. http://www.wildnh.com/maps/boatfish/ I've noticed a couple local ones missing (which is probably a good thing,) but have learned of others.

Not sure if you have to have a facebook account to view this, but anyway... Not doing anything real exciting, just walking by. But, still cool to catch this bobcat pair on a trail cam. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=445805262114827

Check it out! Coming in for the kill!!

Well I hiked today on my first 100% snow free trail of the season. The trail up little Rumney Rattlesnake, off Buffalo Rd, is snow free and pretty dry as well. Though not a huge destination, it is quite worthy of an afternoon hike. Any other snow free routes out there? There's got to be, I...

Well...more of a "lolli-pop" than a loop but we're splitting hairs now :) Crawford Path was like a perfect Microspike or alternate "light traction," highway up to treeline. I brought the snowshoes and 'pons to leave the option open for me to head out to Ike, but decided against it for time...

Patches of snow and ice down low along with very muddy conditions in the first mile. Snow and ice becoming greater with elevation up to about 2-3 inches along the ridge on top of a slushy layer. I was able to bareboot with poles with no problem but traction would have been appropriate. Frozen...

And breeding! Not such a surprise, but cool nonetheless!

Finally feels like winter!! Pics
